Lilikoi is Sweet

Really, I know that I talk about it a lot but it is true. Lilikoi is very sweet. However there is a slight bitter tang to it that can't really be described. The flavor swirls around your mouth enveloping all sorts of sensations that are unable to be described by any words you or I could come up with. You just have to take it all in and call it lilikoi.

Of course I am not here to talk about passion fruit or any of its products such as, sorbet, cake, or even juice for that matter. It is good though.

However good it may be…

I am here to talk about our time in Hawaii.

I write this on our second to last night. I do so only because the only opportunity to upload it will be tomorrow, Thursday, our last full day. Tonight is sort of surreal. Today may have been the most beautiful day out of the two weeks that we have called Hawaii home. We saw beautiful waters and creatures, scenic vistas of Maui and hillsides. We also once again saw the wonderful aloha of the people here. Our time here is coming to a close and it is very much like lilikoi. It is very sweet, but there is something that can't be described at work here. Whatever it is, it overwhelms you and moves you in ways that could not be crammed into any words you or I could come up with. You just have to take it all in and call it Hawaii.

Lord, bless it. Continue to be at work here.

Like the Lilikoi, you are a "sweet" guy who has his priorities straight. Best of the future to you. Stay in God's graces and you will be happy.
